“Why Would They Do That”: NBA Fans Spark Rumors as Kevin Durant Seen Playing With Ex-Teammate Russell Westbrook

Would it be the worst thing if Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook teamed up? This has got to be the closest the NBA has come to a reunion between duos Kyrie-LeBron and Durant-Westbrook. Reportedly, Kevin Durant also wants out of the Brooklyn Nets. Further, he has given his preferred destinations as the Miami Heat and the Phoenix Suns. Interestingly, Irving reportedly wants a reunion with LeBron James.

Further, this would mean that the Los Angeles Lakers would likely send Westbrook Brooklyn’s way. In theory, a Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook reunion is on the cards. Furthermore, in a trending image and clip on Twitter, Russell Westbrook is playing pick-up with Kevin Durant, Domantas Sabonis, and Aaron Gordon among others after training with Coach Noah.

Moreover, the beef between the two is seemingly too strong for them even to step foot in the same gym. Could this mean that Durant and Westbrook have reconciled? In addition, it is highly speculative whether it is an old image or a more recent one, and whether or not people are trying to stir up the Kyrie Irving to Los Angeles Lakers rumor. Regardless, NBA fans on Twitter took the opportunity to spread rumors like wildfire.
